When an insurance company fails to uphold its contractual obligations to its policyholders, it may be considered to be acting in “bad faith.” This can manifest in various ways, including denying claims without proper justification, unreasonably delaying payments, or failing to investigate claims thoroughly.
Insurance litigation is the legal process by which policyholders can seek compensation for losses they have incurred as a result of their insurer’s bad faith actions. An insurance bad faith lawyer specializes in representing policyholders in these cases.
